What can an applicant who fails the first examination do?

An applicant who fails the first examination is permitted to request a review of their answer sheet in person. This process allows applicants to gain insights into their performance on the exam, helping them understand where they may have made errors and how they can improve in future attempts. In-person reviews can provide a more engaging experience than simply reviewing the answer sheet at home, as applicants can ask questions and clarify doubts with the examiner or proctor present. This opportunity supports transparency in the examination process and aids in the applicant's preparation for retaking the exam.

Accessing one's answer sheet at home may not provide the same level of understanding and personal interaction that an in-person review would offer, and challenging results without a formal request lacks a structured process for feedback. Viewing a score online can be limited to just the score itself, without the detailed breakdown or reasoning behind specific answers, which would not be as beneficial for future exam preparation.
